Gardens, Quilts and visitors.

Gosh the days go by so fast, wouldn't you agree. Last Sunday I went to a quilts in the garden show, it seems just like yesterday. I had a fantastic time with my good friends Marina and Tracee.

The setting was at Carrick, a beautiful suburb of Launceston, Tasmania. The weather was perfect and the surroundings were breath taking, look at this beautiful wisteria. The gardens at this quaint B&B were amazing. Its called Hawthorn Villa, I hope thats right.

The quilts were lovely, so much variety and colour.

This one was my favourite with the 3D flowers on the bottom.

The day was extra special as my friend Tracee came to stay with me for a week. We had a great time together.

I was a bit spoilt by Tracee, not only did she drive me to work and pick me up each day she gave me the most beautiful gifts. See those Cath Kidston stickers, I was thrilled to receive those. The Paris tin is so pretty and so is the cute little birds in the heart. they are hanging in my lounge now.

Tracee made me this gorgeous bike stitchery, I love it. Look at that frame. Its so sweet.

And this cute little rabbit.

I had a ball while you were here Tracee and I can't wait for you to come back again, neither can the boys.

I have done a little bit of sewing but they are christmas gifts so I can't share my progress just yet.
